F a i l u r e s fo r a Week .

NEW YOUK, J u l y 93.—R. (!. Dun & Co.'a weekly review of t r ade says; Wi th business progressing well t h roughou t the country, c rop proeiiwcts excellent, iron production la rger than a t any previous period, and money in a b u n d a n t supply, Wall street is disturbed Ix'cause a d r e a m it has been chas-ing for months suddenly fades away, and Mr. ( iarrot t announces tho fai lure of Mr. Ives t o buy tho Balt imore & Ohio. Tho in-cident i l lustrates tho wcaknoss of Wall s treet as a barometer . For fou r months the street has been discounting tho lieneflclal re-sults of this expected "sett lement. ' ' and all sort:, nl purchases, loans, commitmonts, and calculations have been based thereon. But for these, t he ruteiition of tho Haltimore A* Ohio by its old owners would d i s tu rb no-body. But now lit igation, Involving th" va lue of m a n y projiertitt?, directly and in-directly, lias been cominonced ami may over-load them w-itb uncor ta ln ty for somo tlm^. and meanwhile no one wan t s to buy a share in a lawsuit.

Wheat , a t 8 f i ^ cents for N a ^ m l winter in Ju ly is lower than it has been l>;fore in t h a t month fo r more t han for ty years, and close to the lowest price f o r tha t period in a n y month . This is tho d i r ec t result of spec, ulat ion w hich drew m a n y million bushels f rom farmers ' hands, where cosi of c a r r y i n g was nothing, info t h t hands of dealers w b o a r e a n x i o a s to unload before now wheat comes. Tho 20,000,000 bushels in a few e!ip

valors are heavier that 59,000,000 bushels would lie in farmers ' bins. (Still purchases 1

f rom f a r m e r s fo r some t ime to come are prob able, and tho cousequi-nt delay in demand for money to use in c rop mov ing may iiossiMy Ix; helpful.

Prices general ly mv low, in spite of many speculations. As evidence nf the absorption of floating cap i ta l in fixed forms, and its ef-fects, it m a y bo stated t h a t tho samo quant i-ties of art icles, represen t ing nine-tenths o( t he aggrega te consumpt ion of the count ry , which could bavo been b o u g h t a yea r ago for

would now cost only about f lOO.lfi, and they were not 4 per cent, higher in J a n u a r y last. So small a change in princes a f t e r an expansion of (65,000,000 du r ing the year , in ciivulation, is surprising.

The ofllcial bulletin of tho Iron and Steol assoeiation makes tho product ion for t he half year 3,051,000 tons, and reports a slight in-crease iu stocks of unsold iron, making the consumption 12,000 tons less t han production and imports,

U'.'ports f rom all pa r t s of the count ry are un i formly favorable cs t o s ta te of t rade for tbe season, and collections a r e roportod good or f a i r a t all points save two. Tho croj: prospects are also pronounced more favora-ble, though the extent of d a m a g e done by drou(;bt and insects can not bo nctly determined. One fea tu re in cu r ren t re-ports that should be not iced Ls t h a t t he south actually m a d e less iron b y 14,000 tons in t he first half of IS37 than in t he last half of 18S0, notwithstanding nil the expansion of facilities widely heralded, and the re aro signs of abate-ment of real estate en thus iasm at some west-ern points.

Anxiety about the supply of money for the fall revives discussion of t reasury operat ions, but indicat ions a r e tha t no purchase of bonds will bo made if it can IK> avoided. Tho treas-ury has taken in $2,000,0(10 more t han it ha< paid out d u r i n g the pas t week, but la rge dis-bursements a r e expected nliout Aug. 1. Ex ports improve, for three weeks having ex-deeded last year 's by ii p e r cent., against the incivaso of l-'i." pe r cent, in imports. For-eign exchange tend* upward , however, and somo sales of s ' cu r i t i e s on foreign ac-count a r e reported.

PESBV M. HTANCEY. latod upon with g rea t precision in detail , and tho eminent services of the supposed dead explorer a ro re-counted a t length a n d in l auda to ry language . In spite of these e labora te t r ibutes t o the famous t rave le r and au thor , however, the re-ports of his death a r e discredi ted by the pa-pers puldishing them, and even tho West Af r i can Telegraph company, th rough whoso agency the news was hrought , is unable to ver i fy the s ta tements .

He will very probably accept this, now that he has promised to go to St. Louis, nnd be-sides will be pressed nnd urged to go as f a r in the nor thwest as Miiineniiolis.

dent Cleveland's Ileply of Aeeeptance.

WASHIN'.TON CITV, J u l y 20 —The St. Louis people have succeoded in ob ta in ing the acceptance of Pres ident Cleveland of an in-vitation to visit t h a t c i ty du r ing their Octolier festivities. A t 12 o'clock Monday the delega-tion called a t the Whi t e House and there wore received by tho pres ident and prcsenteJ their desires. Mayor F ranc i s mak ing the ad-dress. Ho told tho president t h a t St. Louis with a united voice had resolved to repeat tho inv i ta t ion which cer ta in occurrences had constrained him to once decline, a n d tha t the invi tat ion emana ted f r o m the governing peo-ple, nnd not f r o m any orgaui ja t ion—civi l or mil i tary, political or religious. Tho people of the west would congrega te in vast num-bers to welcome tho chiei magistrate . Tho first week in October had been designated lie-cause a t t h a t t ime the t r ade pageant , the visit of tho veiled prophet , the exjioiition and t he f a i r wcro all in progress, and tho yeo-m a n r y of tho west could with least detri-men t to their agr icu l tu r ia l interests assemble to do the president honor. If another t ime would be t te r suit him, however, bus welcome would ho none tho less genuine. Ho closed by u rg ing t he president of tho United S ta tes t o "honor us wi th your presence," and the honest, fearless man who so ably fills his high ofllce to "come nnd bo our guest ."

He then presented t he eng raved invi tat ion, which was got ten u p in highly ar t is t ic style. Tho president, in a few appropr ia te remarks , complimentod the enterpr ise of S t Louis, and declared t h a t what had happened had in no way weakened his dosire to visit t h a t ci ty. Ho accepted tho invi ta t ion conditioned on t he s t ipulat ion t h a t i t should not interfere with his previous promise to visit At lan ta . This ho had no doub t could bo a r r anged by cor-respondonce between a commi t tee of S t Louis citizens and himself. There was plenty of t ime, ami the th ing must be done.

The m a y o r suggested t h a t tho veiled prophet migh t bo induced to dolay his visit unt i l he could meot t he president , and added tha t i t was not to bo forge t ten t h a t Mrs. Clovoland was included in the invi ta t ion, to which Mr. Cleveland responded t h a t she was-not likely to p . r m i t it t o bo forgot ten . The delegation then, a f t e r extending tho invi tat ion to t he cabinet , withdrew.

The St. Louis delegation were so over joyed with the result of thoir visit to the president that they could not folicitate informal ly , bu t held a meet ing a t Wil lard ' s hotel u t night , gu ihcr ing us ear ly as 7 o'clock, and made speeches and congra tu la ted themselves unt i l a late hour. In the ubsonce of Mayor Francis , the cha i rman of the delegation, who, upon invitat ion, took dinner wi th tho president and Mrs. Clovehnid ut Oakview, John S. Moffell presided over the meeting. Ex-Lieu-t enan t Governor Campbell and S ta te Sena-tor Ueorgo A. Castleman cri l icis 'd sevorely the effor ts of Grand A r m y of tho Ilopublic leaders lo prevent tho pr- sident 's visit to St , l/Ouis. Mr. Cast leman, in crltloUiug these efforts, refer red lo "unprincipleddemagogi ios who endeavored to aid themselves by in jur -ing others, b u t who hail only affonled Mis-souri another oppor tuni ty to extend n hea r ty nnd unpar t l san invi tat ion to a wor thy chief m igistrato of tho nation. "

Numerous telegrams were sent by the dele-gation to mayors of cities of Missouri, and to others, announcing tho miqualitled success of their mission to Washington.

I t liegins to look now a s though President Cleveland will s t a r t tho la t ter pa r t ol S e p tember for an extended tour in tho nor thwest , wes- nnd south? Tho Kansas City, Mo., delegation arc exiiected here in n day or t w o with a n e labora te invi ta t ion signed by thon-sands urg ing tho president to lie present a t their national agr icu l tura l exposition this full.
